I'm not against it. If they just released a shot for shot remake with the same combat and magic system, I wouldn't see the point. But they have changed things enough, and are adding enough content that it will be a fresh experience. If it doesn't become vaporware.

I would honestly at this point prefer a direct sequel to FF7/advent children that picks up with the secret ending of Dirge of Cerberus. Genesis picking up the body of the current incarnation of Sephiroth, sprouting his own wing (opposite wing to the one Sephiroth has) and saying "We have much left to do little brother" before flying off.
